    Those that try to call today's cars "modern day wedge cars" need to look at what real wedge cars were. Today's small bodies do not have a fraction of the aero wedge car had. Those cars were insane and freaking awesome to watch.

    Thanks for the pics Krooser.
    Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

    We are getting there, it’s just not as obvious. With today’s technology, they’d be almost as fast as a sprint car I’d say. And the racing would suck. Costs now are outta control. You let them run sail panels, wickers, humper tires, etc., $$$$.

    Glenn Gault, Denny Chamberlain, Purvis, Buck Simmons, Pat Patrick, Tom Hearst, Duvall, Freddy, Charlie, Donnie, Larry Moore, Delmas, Kenny Brightbill, Gary Balough, Ron Davies, everyone and anyone. And the facilities, top notch. Really poured the money back into that place.
